TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) turned in a disappointing performance on MS NOW last night after host Jen Psaki asked him to clarify his weekend comments that Trump just wants to “fly with Natalie (Harp),”  the president’s attractive executive assistant who follows him everywhere. The  Victory Girls’ Deanna Fisher said the quiet part out loud. “Jon Ossoff is trying to be cute by bringing up President Trump aide Natalie Harp, and alleging that the president is having an affair,” she wrote. Ossoff’s remarks ricocheted throughout social media channels yet the senator twice avoided Psaki’s direct questioning. For a politician with  presidential ambitions, it was a prime time fail. Ossoff also needs better handlers. He had a serious five-o’clock shadow reminiscent of Dick Nixon’s dark beard during his much-disparaged 1960 televised debate with JFK. And his shirt didn’t fit him properly. RedState also noticed his flop and for once I agree with the right-wing outlet...Bad news for Republicans? The Daily Caller believes that comedian Shane Gillis, who is popular with conservatives, could be the “most important bellwether” of the midterm elections.  And that could spell trouble for the GOP.  The Caller reports that Gillis has “soured” on POTUS. The “change from Trump-friendly to Trump-skeptical may not have mattered much in 2025. But in a crucial election year, it matters quite a bit”...After former Clinton VP Al Gore won an Oscar in 2006 for his climate-doom documentary “An Inconvenient Truth,” a wave of climate-change movies flooded theaters, according to Hollywood in Toto.  They include: “Snowpiercer,” “Merchants of Doubt,” “Don’t Look Up,” “The 11th Hour,” “How to Blow Up a Pipeline” and “Geostorm.” Despite all the attention the subject receives from Hollywood, the blog notes the vast majority of voters don’t care about the issue...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
